Yes. Yes. There are cases where the 64-bit binary doesn't run and the 32-bit one does. There are cases where the software is 32-bit only and no longer supported but still needed to export data.
Until Microsoft decides to abandon 32-bit we will still need it.
I'm not saying that 32-bit WINE should go away nor that the 64-bit repository should not include it as a multilib package. I'm saying that installing WINE on an x86_64 system should not force you to install the 32- bit multilib version.
